Dreaming of warmth

Well the first day of spring has come and gone and this gal is still freezin her tuckus off. It was -2 this morning and my car had a thick layer of ice when I went to take the kids to school. BRrrrr. This months color insirations over on the Core'dinations Blog was this wonderful spring\summer pallette.

So while I dreamt of summer, I created this layout.

The bright and marvelous flowers are from Petaloo, Core'dinations has teamed up with them to create flowers that match perfectly to our papers. Did you notice that the pearls match too?? That is because Core'dinations is also teamed up with Queen n Co :) Wicked Cool eh!!!

Dreaming of warmth

Bunny Lunch

Easter approaches rapidly, looking at the calender is a little frightening. I am soooo not ready, heck I still have Christmas stuff up!!! However I got into the mood by scrapping last years Easter photos. LOL!! This was my table setting!!

Check out this little close up of the My little bit of Whimsy bunny pin, ridiculously cute!! To give the title a home of its own, I used Core'dinations and one of my spellbinders shapes and embossed the whole shape instead of  cutting it out, I love how that turned out!!

This chipboard is by one of my favorite Aussie companies 3 Tails and I used a little Smootch spritz on it!!

Looks like this might be the week to put away the other Holidays and get into spring cleaning. Oh Yipppeeee {yeah right}

Inside the cover

So a while back I was asked to participate in the cover challenge with Canadian Scrapbbooker Magazine and although I did not make the front, I made the "another take on the cover section" with this cute layout.

I drew my inspiration from this cute little guys tie, it is hard to see but there are cars on there and echo parks little boy collection matched it perfectly :)

The fabulous buttons are by my little bit of whimsy and that awesome checker plated cardstock is in the Jenni Bowlin bright Core'impressions collection.

All this week

This week on the Core'dinations blog we have been featuring projects with Core'dinations and Imagininsce, {one of my favorite pairings}and this is my first project. My sons favorite toy without a doubt is Lego, and it is an everyday occurrence around here.

Here is a little close up  of the lego pieces that I created with my I-roc and gems!!

In other news, I am getting very excited! I go for my ultra sound in a few days and will finally have a picture to share. I can't wait to see this little guy or gal. Why is it when you are pregnant it seems to take forever, but after it is over, it went by so quick??

All this week

Sharing the bump

Hello there friends, did you think that I had abandoned you?? Sorry about that!

These last months I have succumbed to the craziness of my life, seasonal depression, two active boys who have kept me hopping, plus the ups and downs of being pregnant and building a house.

But I have been crafting and I am certain that at some point soon I am gonna turn all this fabric that I have bought into something!!!

First up this layout, I have been working on some 8.5 x 11 layouts and putting together an album with just random favorite photos. I am really enjoying the smaller size, it really seems to highlight the single favorite photos.

Here is a close up on the florette that I made with my crimper. For all you HARDCORE crafters this is an up coming video tutorial :)

Also this little guy made an appearance at CHA

Plus this is little ol me right now, starting to feeling movement, flutters and finally feeling pregnant not just puffy.

Hope that you are all doing well

TTFN :)

I used some of my favorites from Core'dinations, I really can't get enough of the dots :) Remember the invites that I made a while back? Well, I saved one with this kind of page in mind, so it was an easy instant embellishment with meaning!!

There is more on the way I am feelin crafty!! :)
